How long can housing association landlords leave you without hot water or heating?

This means that as a tenant, you are entitled to have a central heating system or equipment for space heating in every room of the property that you occupy.

Your landlord is responsible for maintaining the hot water and heating systems as well as appliances such as electric heaters that they have supplied.

They must also ensure that the property is safe and fit for human habitation. If water damage has resulted from a water leak, the landlord may also be responsible for repairing this damage.
